That happens when a trade opens and then closes in under a minute. It is there to catch those occasions when an odd concatenation of mis-coding and or poor logic would otherwise cause account-draining constant opening and closing of trades.

It is a feature in all my bots; you do not see it often, for obvious reasons.

Thanks Steve,

This is my first post too and I'll try not to be a complete newb like the guy earlier in the thread :)

Just wanted to say that after many years of tinkering with forex, i'm glad I found your forum.

Keep up the good work and the humour (no spelling mistake - just another Aussie) as well...there are some very funny peeps out there!

Hi Steve,

There is a "zero divide" error in the Experts tab if I use the auto average candle length detection by setting AverageCandleLength to 0. Is this a bug?

Yes it is and it drove me nuts yesterday. I thought I had it licked. You will see that the error stops the ea by watching the time display - which does not change. This is the purpose of the time display, to show the ea is still working.
